[QUOTE="cyantist, post: 1736658, member: 552254"] I know a new one might be out of your price range, but maybe a used one? I own a Mazda3 Hatch an couldn't be happier.. I've had it for exactly a year now and upgraded from my 2002 Civic SI.. The two don't even compare.. The Civic got a little better mileage, but it was so boring to drive, and completely gutless.. I think the Mazda3 is the best car out there in it's price range.. The interior is great, 160hp, stock 17" wheels, and i think it's one of the best looking cars on the road.. I checked into all cars in it's class, from the Golf (I've owned many in the past), to the Matrix (just couldn't get my head around it's fuglyness), to the Imprezza (didn't like the interior).. Since my past experience with Honda's ruled out the Civic, and I don't buy domestics, this left the either the Golf or the Mazda3.. After taking the two for a test drive, the Mazda3 won hands down.. Also, it's built in Japan (unlike the Mazda6) and is just a blast to drive.. Best car I have ever owned.. They can be had used for what you're looking at paying for a new Yaris and they aren't even in the same league.. Just something else for you to think about.. Ask anyone that owns one..
